Nepal: India favors neighbors stability, development and peace?

Telegraph Nepal

Said Indian Ambassador to Nepal, Sri Jayant Prasad Srivastav while addressing a program in Dhulikhel of Kavre District, August 16, 2012, that “Indian government has always been in favor of prosperity, development and stability of its neighbors.”

Jokes in series. Brajesh Mishra will surely bite his tongue.

With India’s tacit linkages with the then terrorist declared Nepal’s Maoists now standing exposed, the Indian ambassador should have quietly sneaked out from the host country rather than defending India’s dubious stand regarding its neighbors, claim critics.

Recall, June India-Maoists June 2002 Treaty.

He added at the program organized to celebrate India’s 66th Independence Day, “India will always provide a helping hand towards Nepal’s independence (swadhinta) and affluence.” Boldai Ma K bigrancha ni?

By the way, the bitter fact is that majority of Nepali citizens feel that India itself is a major threat to Nepal’s sovereignty and independence.

But, said His Excellency Prasad, “there are enormous challenges to Nepal’s prosperity and development thus there is no alternative to unity between Nepal’s political parties”. True!

Another bitter allegation that India faces in Nepal is that it is India that keeps Nepal’s political parties at bay to keep Nepal destabilized.

Experienced truth.

To end the transitional period, suggested Prasad, peace and constitutional processes must be completed at the earliest. Very true!

DEAR RUDRA SHARMA... I AM A INDIAN CITIZEN AND STILL I AGREE YOUR VIEWS EXPRESSED BY YOU. AS LONG AS INDIAN SIDE IS NOT DEMONSTRATING THEIR HONEST AND TRUE INTENTIONS FOR INDPENDANT NATION, ITS DIFFICULT TO EARN THE TRUST AND GOOD WILL FROM NEPALI CITIZEN. AT THE SAME TIME NEPALI LEADERS SHUD NOT COME TO DELHI FOR NOW AND THEN TO DO SO CALLED CONSULTATIONS WITH INDIAN LEADERS AND NOW THEY SHOULD TAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS. BUT AT THE SAME TIME LET ME TELL MR RUDRA SHARMA THAT, AT PEOPLE TO PEOPLE LEVEL INDIANS DO LIKE AND LOVE NEPALI CITIZENS FOR THEIR HONESTY AND HARD WORK AND I HOPE SAME IS SITUATION IN NEPAL AT PEOPLES LEVEL. IN THIS CONTEXT INDIANS HV MORE RESPONSIBLITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY IF INDO NEPAL RELATIONS ARE DETERIOTING OR IMPROVING. THATS IT

@Gus, Dear friend thank you very much for your expression of pain on deteriorating Nepal-India relation. Visa-less movement is applied for Indians too to go to Nepal and work. You talked about two Hindu countries not collaborating. Infact, Government of India trained Nepali Maoists, provided arms and ammunitions and shelter to the leaders in govt guest-houses of Delhi, Noida, UP, Bihar and West Bengal as if they were state guests for almost 10 years to dethrone the only Hindu Kingdom of the World. GOI invited other 7 traitor parties too and orchestrated 12 point Delhi Agreement to destabilize Nepal. You talked retirement funds but it is nothing as mercy of India but it is a return of few percentage on velor and bravery shown in frontline of war to save another Hindu neighbor. And the most, it is the colonial legacy adopted by so-called largest democracy. What kind of politics done by our leaders is clerar by the status of North East people in other states. I think at such circumstances, thinking relation with other countries is not the primary agenda. Thank You.

Two Hindu countries in world and still not collaborating.what a shame! Media is hell bent on spreading venom and destroy relationship. Leaders are also doing the same ( both India and Nepal). Nepali citizen has no VISA requirement to go to India and work in India. India pays maximum retirement funds in Nepal. But all this will be soon evaporate if goodwill vanishes...please do not destroy this relationship!.
